Commentary on Carrie Henry's Enough is Enough

On October 31st, 2014 Carrie Henry commented on the United States Border, Enough is Enough, and how she thinks that illegal immigrants in the US has become somewhat of a problem.

I agree one hundred percent that the United States' Government and armed forces need to take more steps in protecting the border and enforcing it as well as the consequences for being here illegally.

I do not think it is insensitive at all to say that those who come here should not be allowed to stay regardless of whether or not they are kids, (because a lot of parents in Mexico allow their kids to cross the border in order to better their life). I do understand that there are reasons why Mexicans cross illegally to get away from the terrible circumstances that are there in their country, but that does not make it fair for them to bring their problems here. We do not need any more drug problems or poverty stricken citizens here in the United States. That being said, we don't need ANY more people here in the country. Overpopulation already is a problem.

Another thing that bothers me about illegal immigrants is that we are so worried about the national debt but don't stop to think about what all of the illegal immigrants do to that. It is not fair that US taxpayers have to pay for extra people that do not belong here. Don't mean to sound harsh when saying this, but I do believe that most immigrants that come here don't come here and get ahead and do anything for the country. Most of them to be honest just come to ride off the governments money (Medicaid, Unemployment, Food Stamps). It just isn't right.

I think that enforcing our borders and bringing more troops there to protect it would be very beneficial. I also believe that we need to enforce consequences when catching immigrants here illegally. As for the "pathway to citizenship", I think that this is absolutely absurd. We can't reward people and give them the right to live here, when they broke the law.
